CARING FOR YOUR WATCH
Rip Curl watches are tested to the highest industry standards with the best
Swiss pressure testing equipment and are purpose built for surfing.
NOTE : All Industry standard watch-testing is done to an overpressure
situation in a static laboratory environment and does not signify a diving
depth. Due to the fact that surfing is in no way a static sport there are
influences that can effect a watches ability to keep water out. Eg : Frequent
temperature changes, salt water and big wipeouts can diminish the longevity
of the watches rubber seals. To keep your watch in peak condition for surfing
we recommend you have your watch seals replaced and fully tested every
24 months at the Rip Curl Watch Service Centre.
RIP CURL PTY. LTD. assumes no responsibility for any loss, or any claims by
third parties that may arise through the use of this watch.
• Do not clean watch with spray cleaners, thinners or other such volatile agents.
• Never try to open the watch.
• Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures.
• Should moisture appear inside the watch, have it checked by Rip Curl technicians.
• Though Rip Curl watches are produced to high standards, avoid dropping the
watch and rough treatment.
• Avoid exposing the watch to gasoline, cleaning solvents, aerosol sprays, paint
etc as chemical reactions with such agents will destroy seals, case and finish.
• Do not operate buttons under water.
• After watch is exposed to salt water, rinse thoroughly in freshwater and wipe
dry with a soft cloth.
